Additional Description

Condition Note:

The log book is very old and extremely fragile. The cover upon being produced would have been a minty/very light green color, (see Fig. 1) but now the color has completely faded or has deteriorated off. Upon opening the cover, there are zero pages that are still attached to the spine of the book, and are loosely sitting inside. The paper itself on the inside of the book is also extremely fragile and should be handled with extreme care. The pages appear to be so fragile that if moved in a manner incongruent with its intentional use (for example, lightly pulling on the paper outward away from the book instead of just turning the page) the paper will simply just fall apart. The book itself when closed, measures roughly six inches wide, seven and a half inches long.
